Dilemma - I need advice (long)

[BC_MoM]

Here is just a little something of my opinion.

If the owners are being so negative about Roxy, then Roxy is going to feed off of that and it will ruin any "bond" there is between them, making training between the two (or three) very difficult.

I hope you dont mind me saying this, but this owner sounds like she dont like roxy and I dont this this owner deserve to have Roxy cuz she sounds like a great dog to have

I agree; her owner has been pretty committed thus far. But I think pitc9 nailed it on the head- Roxy's owner acts like she was expecting a perfect dog and is now frustrated that it takes so much work to keep and train one. It just irritates me how she's so willing to give up

I'm keeping my ears out for anybody who's looking for a dog and I'm considering using a local rescue's owner assistance program, but it costs $50 dollars and they require you to send vaccination/spay records. I don't have the latter and I feel Roxy's owner should pay the former. I just don't know which option is morally right.

The situation for both Roxy and her owner is not ideal, but I'm giving them both some time to work it out. Roxy has been in her new home for about 2-3 months so the progress she's made is *amazing*. I just wish her owner would see it, too!
